I guess I didn’t place it properly.” She inched closer to him and picked the book with lightning speed to place it carefully on his lap again. “There, it shouldn’t be falling anytime soon.

She's going to be the death of me, mumbled before adding a string of curse words to the statement. I hurried over to her and supported her falling figure by putting my hand around her waist leading her to the nearest table.

With a final defiant flourish, the pages slipped free, descending towards the ground like confetti at a forgotten celebration. Heart pounding, I bent down to retrieve the fallen book, my mind still reeling from the profound revelations I had just absorbed.

You're the one who said you could handle the system! You tried to show off, even stealing her monitor!" Just minutes ago, the mentor and apprentice who were praising each other now tore into each other like two cornered animals. I stood off to the side, watching coldly.

I stood up, the midnight breeze from the open window hitting my naked skin. I walked toward the book, my heart racing. As I bent down to pick it up, I realised it had fallen open to a specific page.

“What if I don’t know how?” “Then you figure it out. One day at a time.” We stood there in silence for a while, her arms around me, her presence grounding.

"When I see your face There's not a thing that I would change 'Cause you're amazing Just the way you are And when you smile The whole world stops and stares for a while 'Cause girl, you're amazing Just the way you are Yeah~" I got so excited when I saw the lastest book that I'm trying to find. Wow! Who would have thought that I will found it here in school! I frown when I found myself struggling with the position. Gosh! I should have known that my height is not enough to reach the last to the top row of this shelf. I bit my lip and jump my way to get the book. But because of my clumsiness, I saw myself falling.

He got the book but the tool was already tempered with.. It wasn't a big height but it made his balance unstable and silea pushed the tool by her foot making him fall on her.
